This general purpose was forged from high carbon W2 steel laminated between two pieces of historic wrought iron and has a handle made from walnut.
This knife combines a high degree of functionality, combined with heaps of character. In the case of this blade, the character of the wrought iron is, er, pretty wild. Due to the natural, untreated nature of both high carbon steel, iron and the handle material, this knife will patinate and change over time. I have put a starter patina on it, which will change with use. Please see the care and guarantee section of my website before purchase.
The specifications are as follows, the distal taper is pictured and the balance point is around the mark;
Blade length; ca. 192mm
Blade height at heel; ca. 60mm
Handle length, from the heel; ca. 140mm
